LENTINUS SUBNUDUS. Pileus usually infundibuliform, smooth,
white, discoloring when old. Gills close. This seems quite a frequent
species in the East. I have it from C. B. Ussher, Straits Settlements;
J. P. Mousset, Java, and have collected it in Samoa. It has probably other
names as Panus and the following as Lentinus are in my opinion all the
same: cretaceus, inconspicuus, lobatus, coadunatus, and caespitosus of
Currey changed to
Paris.
Curreyanus. There are other synonyms at Berlin and
LENTINUS TIGRINUS. A collection from S. N. Ratnagar, India,
seems to be this species of Europe.
LENTINUS TORULOSUS. In Fries as Panus, but I can not see how
it is to be distinguished generically from previously listed plants. I have
a collection from Dr. J. Dutra, Brazil, which is more slender but otherwise
seems to me the same as this species as I know it in Europe.
LENTINUS CONNATUS. This is quite a distinct species in the East
and is found in several museums having been distributed in Zollinger's
exsiccatae from the Philippines, though Berkeley afterward referred several
collections to Lentinus infundibuliformis, a quite different plant that he had
named (several times) from the American tropics. Leveille called it
Lentinus javanicus and Cesati, Lentinus Beccarianus. I have a
from the Philippines sent to me while at Kew for comparison.
specimen
LENTINUS (species), I have a collection from Joges Ray, India, that
I did not find named.
LENTINUS (species unnamed I believe). This was sent to me at
Kew for comparison. It came from the Philippines, and in the recent
list of Bresadola appears as Lentinus polychrous, Leveille. No type of
Lentinus polychrous is found (at Leiden) and the specimens that Leveille
sent to Paris and to Kew are different species, so that I think the name
can not be used with certainty. Judging from Leveille's description the
plant at Kew (which is the same as Lentinus praerigidus) is the cotype.

NOTE 84 Hydnum compactnm, from Miss Lizzie C. Allen, Newtonville, Mass. This
specimen, received fresh, I was very glad to get, as it is a species I have never collected
and it has been confused with Hydnum aurantiacum and Hydnum caeruleum. It it quite
different from Hydnum aurantiacum as I ki.ow it well in the woods of Sweden. It is
well ntmed, for its sl'Ort, o'oese, compact form. Tlie top is even (colliculose in aurantiacum)
and very minutely tomentose. The color is ochraceous, with a suggestion of orange.
When cut the flesh turn* blue, a feature entirely different from what takes place when
Hydnum aurantiacum is cut. Hydnum compactum has heretofore been confused by me
(cfr. Note 69) and by others with Hydnum caeruleum.
